The generals of the Qing army originally planned to take advantage of the unstable foothold of the Qi family army to make a surprise attack, but unfortunately they underestimated the speed of the Qi family's army and the combat effectiveness of the Qi family's army.

Two thousand infantry dared to rescue Jiangyin, if there was no killer feature, how could Qi Zhifeng lead the team to come?

For the number of cavalry of the Qing army, the people of Jiangyin who fled south by the Qi family army had already figured out the details, and it was originally expected that the 20,000 young and strong after the break should be difficult to preserve, in order to cover the retreat of the people, Qi Zhifeng decided to defend on the spot.

But the scouts sent later reported that Wang Guoxing led 5,000 elite armored cavalry to fight the Qing army, and it seems that many people survived.

Qi Zhifeng thought to himself, and felt that with 5,000 cavalry joining the battlefield, the situation should not be too bad, so he gave up the plan of defending in situ and quickly supported Wang Guoxing instead.

Just scouts to investigate this aspect, except for the Suzhou New Army, the Qi family army is the strongest among the rest of the Ming army.

When the Qing army discovered the Qi army, the Qi army had already begun to line up quickly, and when the Qing army led the cavalry to arrive, the Qi army had even set up tiger squat cannons on the front line.

"This Tartar is really a mad dog, he dares to pounce on anyone when he sees it, and he will send them a wave of tigers to run together, I heard that this thing is very powerful against cavalry." Qi Zhifeng described lightly.

On the plains, what the infantry needs to fight the cavalry is to continuously cover it with long-range fire, otherwise once the cavalry breaks into the formation, the consequences are unimaginable.

The previous 10,000 villagers, in the case of Wang Guoxing's heavy cavalry closely followed, in order to stop the Qing army from charging into battle, more than 2,000 people were killed, which shows the hegemony of cavalry in this era.

However, it is not difficult to imagine the consequences of the overlord of cold weapons when encountering new thermal weapon troops, especially those like the Qi family army, who are good at using thermal weapons.

To deal with the firearms troops, the cavalry did not dare to use the tactics of ranger harassment, the range of the weapons on both sides was obviously unequal, and the only one who could suffer was the cavalry, so the only thing the Qing army could do was to rush up in one go, close the distance and engage in white-knuckle combat.

The idea was right, but a round of hundred tigers rushed over, so that the cavalry troops charging at the forefront suffered a lot of losses, especially the huge roar after the explosion, which disturbed many war horses and caused the Qing cavalry formation to be chaotic.

The cavalry of the Qing army has no formation, and its lethality will not be much better than Wang Guoxing's heavy cavalry, and this time Qi Zhifeng went to Li Hongfei's Baoshan Industrial Zone in order to support Jiangyin, and purchased fifty Furlong machine guns, five hundred tiger launchers, and a large number of grenades.

The two thousand Qi family troops, using such powerful thermal weapons and equipment, can deal with five thousand light armored cavalry who have little protective ability, and it is not a problem at all.

The 5,000 Qing troops miscalculated, first the formation was disrupted, and then they were bombed by the saturation of the tiger squat artillery, and suffered a dark loss, and they did not even rush to the front 200 meters, leaving behind more than 600 corpses and retreating in panic.

The commander of the Qing army, who was responsible for containing Wang Guoxing's troops, learned of this situation, and decisively led the remaining 7,000 light cavalry to quickly retreat in the direction of Jiangyin, after all, the current situation was no longer suitable for continuing the battle.

The cavalry of the Qing army took the initiative to leave, and the Ming army had no ability to pursue, Wang Guoxing's heavy cavalry was almost exhausted and paralyzed at this time, and although the Qi family army was in high morale, it was a pity that the two legs could not outrun the other party's four legs.........

At the same time that the people in Jiangyin broke through and were saved, the county town of Jiangyin, which Zheng Chenggong was defending, also ushered in a turning point.

It turned out that when Zheng Chenggong contracted his forces and engaged in a fierce street battle with the enemy at the south gate, in the Yangtze River, not far from Jiangyin, there was a sudden rumbling of artillery, and it was obvious that there were warships engaged in a large-scale firefight.

Does the Ming army still have a sailor in the Yangtze River waterway at this time?

The answer is naturally yes, and this is thanks to Zheng Zhilong, who likes to be careful in his calculations, and Zheng Zhilong sent people to inform Duoduo and plot to assassinate Li Hongfei at the same time, he also sent 500 large and small warships to enter the Yangtze River waterway again, preparing to hand over to Zheng Chenggong's command to show his determination to "support" Nanjing.

When the warship sent by Zheng Zhilong sailed into Chongming Island, he found that Zheng Chenggong himself was not on the island, and only left Shi Lang, a close general, to lead dozens of warships to guard the waters of Chongming Island.

After some inquiry, it was learned that Zheng Chenggong actually led the army to support Jiangyin, which shocked the generals of the navy.

Who is Zheng Chenggong, that is Zheng Zhilong's eldest son, the first heir of the future Zheng Jiajun, the news that Zheng Chenggong is trapped in Jiangyin directly caused the sailors who came to support to explode.

However, the sailor division was always a sailor and could not go to land to fight, and this time Zheng Zhilong was only to show his "loyalty", so he only sent warships and sailors, and did not send a landing force.

In the end, Shi Lang discussed with Qi Zhifeng and decided to send someone into Jiangbei to discuss with Qi Hongying.

Soon Qi Hongying sent someone to reply that she would lead the army to meet Zheng Zhilong's sailors thirty miles downstream from Jiangyin, take the sailor warship, and land in Jiangyin for rescue.

Because Chongming Island has a naval division stationed, and most of the area in Jiangbei near Chongming Island is in the hands of Qi Hongying, Qi Zhifeng is not stationed on Chongming Island, but leads the remaining 2,000 Qi family troops to support by land through Suzhou.

Qi Zhifeng set off first, and Qi Hongying's army also gathered thirty miles downstream from Jiangyin on the night of the second day of Duoduo's onslaught on Jiangyin.

When Duoduo broke through the north gate of Jiangyin in the early morning of the third day, Qi's army had quietly crossed south and marched along the river towards Jiangyin.

When Zheng Zhilong's sailors, under the leadership of Shi Lang, launched an attack on the Qing army's sailors, Qi Hongying's 50,000-strong army also launched a full-scale counteroffensive against the main force of the Qing army that entered Jiangyin City.

After three days of fighting, the Qing army was already exhausted, and suddenly encountered a counterattack by the Ming army, coupled with the cutting off of the back road, the sailors were too busy to take care of themselves, and the morale of the Qing army trapped on the south bank suddenly plummeted.

In order to capture the north gate of Jiangyin, the Qing army had concentrated a large number of artillery and expanded the gap in the north gate, and now the Qi army sent a large number of infantry (in addition to 30,000 firearms troops, there are some cold weapons and miscellaneous garrisons) to quickly attack the city.

At this time, most of the Qing army had this idea in their hearts: If there is no gap, it would be great, maybe they could still hold Jiangyin.

This is really in response to that sentence, digging the pit by himself and burying himself.

If Duoduo hadn't seen the opportunity quickly, leaving Liu Liangzuo's 20,000 army to break off, he would have led the remaining 30,000 troops in his headquarters to withdraw from the West Gate, then the Qing army that entered the city this time is estimated to have to be explained in Jiangyin City.
